I was only able to make it out to CMA Fest 2023 for one day, but I supported as many artists and friends as I could. In 12 hours I saw Kameron Marlowe, Caylee Hammack, Matt Stell, King Calaway, Jordan Fletcher, Zach Stone, Drew Parker, Patrick Murphy, Michael Ray, Macy Tabor, and Miller Holler. Whew!

I’ve been hearing a lot about Caylee Hammack, and was interested to see her live. Definitely put on a good show. Great voice, fun personality, entertaining.

Matt Stell, the reason I got to Riverfront early. Totally worth it. Always fun to watch. He played a few new songs “One Of Us” and “Shut the Truck Up” along with past hits “That Ain’t Me No More”, Everywhere But On” and of course my favorite “Prayed For You”.

Saw King Calaway at the Opry so had to stop by and check out their set at the Chevy Vibes stage. Love the harmonies.

Headed over to 6th and Peabody for the Warner Music Party, specifically headliner Michael Ray. He always puts on a great show and that night was no exception. Highlights included his new single “Spirits and Demons” featuring a duet with Meghan Patrick, “Workin’ On It”, and “Dive Bars & Broken Hearts”. Ray also performed hits from his past albums.
